FYI,, Interesting "Before and After " shots from space of the Pac NW.
http://modis.gsfc.nasa.gov/gallery/individual.php?db_date=2007-12-12 If you move your cursor back and forth over the image you will see the PNW before (note the snow coverage)... And the same shot After the big Melt and Rain. The MODIS photo can be seen in close up by clicking on the right side options.. "1 km, 500 m and 250 meters/pixel" The 250 meter/Pix is the best.. Neither my boat or where I live was ever in danger. But all around us, major damages have been done. And it's not over yet. Enjoy, Ralph Ahseln Gresham OR "Oblio"
